Omg hi are your requests still open??? No pressure!

Unfortunately I am here as a Mahito simp and your twoshot of him has me in a chokehold. I’ve re-read that an ungodly amount of times now. That said, I can’t get the thought out of my head of Mahito noncon-ing a reader he likes who can’t see him, who is eventually able to see him in the midst of the act. Aaaaaa

Bed Bugs

(Yandere, dark content, implied somno, noncon, dubcon, choking-but veryvery brief)

You've been waking up sore lately.

Maybe you aren't sleeping, right? Maybe it's your bed. It might not be expensive, but you bought it solely for comfort.

The pain comes from your thighs. Aching. Numb. And if you looked closely, you swore you could see bites-

Bed bugs. That had to be it.

"I hate those fuckers," your friend groans, "I got a couple bites when I was staying in that cheap motel back in California? Lasted for a week."

"I was looking at exterminators. Everything's so expensive these days," you mutter, swirling your latte, "I don't even know how I got them. Ridiculous."

She hums. The cafe was quiet during this time, not too many customers. The two of you were tucked away in a booth, still nursing the expensive coffee. You'd already heard her rant about the inflation.

"Y'know, my friend's older brother has some kinda' homerun pest control gig. I can ask him about it. Maybe he can give you a discount? I'm pretty sure he specializes in termites but I don't think there's a real difference."

You eye her. "Yeah, no. Termites aren't in any way close to bed bugs. Besides, don't they use acid for termites? I'd still like to sleep on a bed that doesn't give me skin problems."

"See? I'm giving you solutions, and you keep rejecting them," your friend sighs, "I give up. I think you just got roommates now."

You laugh, about to respond, when you feel something dangerously close to your inner thigh. You glance down. Nothing.

"Uh, speaking of roommates, what did you say was happening with yours?" You change the subject, shifting in the booth.

"Oh yeah! Her and Dan are getting pretty serious, I think she's gonna move out soon."

"Oh really?" The touch came back. Harder. More insistent. You gasp when something grabs you by the hips, squeezing.

Your friend gives you a look. "You okay?"

You look around again. Nothing. Again.

"Um, yes! I am." You managed to respond, "Sorry, sorry, just....long day."

You clear your throat, plastering on a smile as you listen to her prattle about the drama in her life. Her voice distracts you from your thoughts swirling in your mind. Each getting more ridiculous than the last. 

You swore it felt like a...hand.

Work kicked your ass today. 

You'd never been so tired, practically falling asleep on the train. Crowded as always. You scrunched your nose as yet another person conveniently forgot to wear deodorant that day. Wonderful. 

At least, the day was over. You could resign to being as unproductive as possible for the rest of your night. 

You scroll through the forum. Almost everyone said that bed bugs- Cimex lectularius because now you've researched them so much you know their scientific name- are a losing battle. The final verdict is to get rid of your mattress immediately. Either that, or you'd need to call a specialized exterminator that cost at least twice the price of your current mattress. You didn't know which was the worst deal. 

You ignore the first few touches. Trains. Crowded area. People who don't understand boundaries. It's the swipe on your ass that makes you turn around and glare at the likely culprit. A sleazy-looking man in his late-forties. He barely even reacts, just arching a brow at your look. 

Typical. You inch away from him, squeezing past the other bodies until you're well past the other side. You lean against the window, blocking yourself from any other unwanted touches. Finally. Some peace. 

Until it started back up again. 

Something solid presses against you. Like-like a wall. Insistent, begging to be noticed. You're forced back, squished against the already small space. It wasn't your imagination. You can't delude yourself. It was real. A real hand was pressing against your pants, right above your clothed pussy. 

But there was no one there. 

What the fuck. 

The rhythm is rough, forceful as the hand starts grinding on your clit, sending tingles up your spine. You let out a confused whine, slapping a hand over your mouth as you squirm fruitlessly against whatever the fuck this thing was. You can't stop it. It's too much. Too sudden. You want it to stop but it takes you higher and higher and higher and-

It's gone just when the train rolls to a stop. All at once, the opposing wall disappears. You stumble out of the doors, legs shaking, panting. 

There's a whisper of a laugh right by your ear. You realize you're very wet.

What. The. Fuck. 

You could have deluded yourself into thinking it was a hallucination. That you were so tired from work you had an orgasm untouched. It sounded ridiculous, but it was plausible, right? Stranger things have happened. 

But, it just kept happening. 

The touches range. Sometimes, it's just a brush against your shoulder. A poke on your cheek. Other times it's more insistent. You can still remember the sharp spank on your ass in your very much-alone apartment. 

You were starting to think you might not be so alone, anymore. 

The worst was when you were out in public. It always happened in public. You'd be at work, typing on your computer when you'd feel a sensation on your pussy, grinding on you until you're close to cumming. When you'd break away to hide away in the bathroom, you'd always find your panties soaked.

Sometimes, you find yourself typing something ridiculous on your computer. Are ghosts real? Can apparitions touch the living? 

In one of these rabbit holes, you stumble across the word Spectrophillia. Forums of tons and tons of people sharing their own experiences that are eerily similar to yours. A woman describes her encounter with her own aspiration, saying that the thing had physical teeth, a physical tongue, a physical- 

You stop reading after that. A horny ghost. Is that seriously what you were dealing with? You weren't raised religiously, so the idea wasn't very appealing. 

Luckily, your doctor was a woman of science. 

"The symptoms you're describing are a very common indication of stress." She types away on her computer. 

You eye her, both in relief and incredulous. "Really?" 

"Of course," she says, "Trust me, people have come up with crazier stories. Now." She turns back to you, clicking her pen before writing a couple things down on her clipboard.

"I'll prescribe you diazepam. Take one two hours after you've eaten before night." She instructs. "Come back if you feel anything out of the norm." 

You nod, still a bit dazed by her answer. Stress, that's seriously all that this was? 

But it worked, oddly enough. The first night back from the clinic, you stopped feeling those pseudo touches. Your insomnia started going away. You started getting a proper sleep cycle. For the first time in weeks, things were starting to work in your favor.

And then you wake up to the sounds of your bed moving. 

Creaking. Back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. 

Also, you feel...good. Really really good. Tingles shoot up your spine. A pleased sigh unconsciously escapes from your lips as the pleasure between your thighs grows. You're still incoherent, hips following the feeling. Hands are wrapped around your wrists, pressing them against the mattress. There's a puff of air against your ear. Tongue and teeth that nip against your throat. 

It feels like a wet dream, you think. Blearily, you open your eyes, fully prepared to see some Hollywood actor, your crush from work, a cute stranger. 

You see nothing but the ceiling. But the pressure only increases. 

Immediately, all sleep is gone. You wiggle and squirm under the sudden weight. Weight that shouldn't be possible, considering there's nothing there. Your scream is blocked by a hand clamping itself over your windpipe, squeezing. 

The panic is immediate. You're writhing, doing whatever you can to get air into your lungs. It's not working. You can't move your hands. You can't move your legs. You're dying you're dying you're-

"Can you see me now?" 

You can see him. 

You were expecting something a bit less inhuman. Apart from the stitches that litter his face, he looks familiar, in terms of shape that is. Two human eyes. A human head. Human lips that are curved into a grin. Human skin. 

He looks so normal. And that makes whatever is happening even more scary. 

He releases your throat, and you're sucking in mouthfuls of air, regulating your breathing. He hums in clear delight, leaning away so he straddles you. He tuts when you start crying, sobs wracking your shivering body. 

"Is that all you can do?" He clicks his tongue like he's disappointed in you. 

"Get off," you wheeze, wiggling away, "Get-get off." 

"Why? You were enjoying it a couple of minutes ago." It? You glance down at the mess of bedsheets, where he's still inside you, lazily grinding his cock back into your wet hole. 

Nothing about this makes sense. What was he doing-How can he be-How is he even real when you couldn't see him before? You can't think; your mind is still drowsy on fatigue and the medication. Fuck the medication? Is that why you can barely even struggle?

"What a-are you?" You manage to slur out, words slipping around your tongue like butter. 

He laughs like you just said the world's funniest joke. It only makes your stomach drop. You've never heard a sound so evil before. 

"That's kinda' rude. Your parents never taught you manners?" He drawls, "Mahito, that's my name! I know yours!" You hate the way he says your name with so much perversion. He's ruining the innocence, just like how he's ruining you. 

You open your mouth, intent on screaming, but at that exact moment, his cock slams back inside you. You give out a stuttered moan instead. 

"See? Told you: you like it." Mahito gloats and your mind swirls in and out of focus again. You're barely coherent, moaning and huffing underneath him. You feel disgusted at yourself. For being so okay with this. But-but you can't move. You can barely breathe. 

And, you note with reluctance, he's been doing this for a while. You're practically mid-way through your build-up, so close to an orgasm that you don't want. Given by a fucking monster. 

"Have you-have you been-" 

"Yeah, it's been me, for a while now," he answers without much cadence, "You were so close with the ghost theory. It was kinda cute watching you get so desperate. Finding whatever you could to check out of reality."

Oh. You get it. This was all a game for him. How long has he been doing this to you? Making you stumble around, drowning in your own paranoia. How long has this thing been watching you? Touching you. Fucking you.

"You, on the other hand, are on a whole other level with your delusion." He grins, showing teeth. "Fuck, seriously, did you think you were hallucinating me fingering you? At that point, I have to admire your creativity." 

You can barely focus on his words, not when his cock was digging you out. You were so close, practically on the precipice. He gives one more snap of his hips, and you're gone, pussy clenching around his dick, back arching.

The orgasm feels like it lasts for hours because he refuses to stop moving. He finally grants you mercy by spilling his cum deep inside you, forcing you to milk his cock as he lazily rolls his hips, forcing your oversensitive body to jolt. 

You catch your breath when the world stops spinning. When it grows quiet, you can only hear your own panting. Another wave of tears threatens to spill. 

"Aw, cheer up," Mahito purrs, "At least it wasn't bed bugs, right?"

[ingravinoveritas]

Have you seen this? I head "Michael got excited about being connected through matching bracelets" and immediately thought that you're going to have some thoughts.

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGeQE7KSk/

Oh my god. No, I hadn't seen this video until now, but thank you SO much for sending it to me! I'll post a clip of the most pertinent part about what Michael said below, but I urge folks to check out the whole thing on Tiktok, as this is the woman who made the bracelets we saw David wearing at the Proud Nerd Con last weekend:

My first immediate reaction after seeing/hearing this was utter disbelief and delight, coupled with a complete lack of surprise because...Michael. If there is anyone who could channel "15-year-old girl during the last week of summer camp" energy, it is Michael. It's also terribly bittersweet and yet somehow fitting knowing that we're nearing the end of Michael's time in London--which I think we can now refer to as Shennant Summer, at least in Australia, though the last six months were technically the winter here.

(My second thought was that I feel like we're a hell of a lot closer than ever before to my imaginings of Michael and David getting complementing tattoos somehow manifesting into reality...)

But...my god. I don't think any of us could picture Michael and David not being connected in some way, even if/when they're not in the same city, and yet the thought of Michael wanting to have some tangible reminder of David with him always is doing things to my heart that may necessitate the use of defibrillators. I feel like this is some kind of reverse Parent Trap situation where Michael is going to "accidentally" pack one of the Tennant kids in his suitcase, which will mean David will have to go to Wales to collect his wayward offspring, and then the next thing you know they're on a yacht drinking Champagne while "I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)" plays in the background.

I think what is so incredible to me is that we know how soft (in the best way possible) Michael is, but to know that he's specifically gotten that way over David--that he holds David in that deep heart space--is achingly beautiful. I know a lot of folks will say that this is giving all of the "friendship bracelet" and "besties" vibes, but I really don't think it's much of a stretch to think that it could be something more. Everything about this just feels so romantic at this point that, in my opinion, it would seem almost ludicrous to not consider it a possibility. Because right now, neither Michael nor David appear to be holding back, and I'm so here for it.

Thank you again so much for sending this my way. I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks, so please feel free to add your thoughts in the comments. Thanks for writing in! x

#weirdandtired #reply post #michael sheen #welsh seduction machine #david tennant #soft scottish hipster gigolo #proud nerd con 2024 #Michael is about as subtle as a drunken llama on roller skates #at this point the subtext might as well be a billboard #i am hard-pressed to think of any other male 'BFFs' who have matching bracelets #i'm just saying #there is no heterosexual explanation for this #high profile friendship #low profile lovers #they are perfect together your honor #ineffable lovers #discourse

Hey - you said repeaters welcome so here I am 💅

If you’ve watched Scenes from a Marriage, I need ya thots /HC for Levy:

BEST FRIEND.

Jonathan Levy x f!reader.

Warnings: mentions toxic relationship, mentions cheating, does this count as cheating too?, angst, smut, fluff, swearing.

Requested by: @boredzillenial

Author's Note: bestie the gif u send is so MWAH cheeky beefy oscar isaac ass 🤭 if u dont mind, i added in a small story line because u swear this man deserves better. mira fucked him up smh (tbh i have no idea what im writing have mercy on me)

Summary: you're Jonathan Levy's best friend, always been in love with him even after he got married. But then it crumbles down and you proved that you treat him better.

MINORS DNI

My immediate thought is like: oh childhood besties with Jonathan instead of the usual teacher-student relationship. I think it adds more drama, you know?

Imagine being so in love with this man for years, but he's blind. He marries Mira and to add salt to the wound you were his best man, or rather best woman. Holding in tears because you thought to yourself 'Surely, I'd move on.'

You two grow up, still closer and you watched him make a family of his own while you work a decent job and end up drinking at the end of the day. Partners come and go, but none of them made you feel the same way Jonathan did. And Jonathan barely did shit.

You knew it was wrong pining for a married man, but you hoped some day Jonathan sees that Mira treats him like shit. You didn't want to upset him since you're his best friend. The one person who knew everything about him even after setting boundaries since he got married.

Were you surprised when Jonathan calls you over and tells you Mira cheated on him? Of course not. You called up a babysitter for Ava and went to hit up a bar, drowning in his sadness.

"What does she have that keeps you... I don't know... loving her? What's so different that you keep crawling back to her."

He couldn't reply. Jonathan stared at you, remembering all the times you two talked— the ones where he's always ranting about his married life, the struggles and the stress. You always just sat there and listened to him. You never straight out voiced your opinion about Mira.

"What else do you think of her?"

"She's a bitch. I mean seriously, you two have a daughter and she pulls this shit. Anyone— and I mean everyone can treat you better than she does."

You always did speak the truth when you're drunk. So this was different.

"You packed her shit too. If I were you, I would've burned everything she owned. Did I ever tell you of the ex boyfriend I had? Changed his shampoo to hair remover."

"That's a bit extreme."

"Your face is a bit extreme."

You always knew just how to make him laugh, even with childish insults. No words were exchanged between the two of you, Jonathan stared at you, scanning your features. Something about you was different. Maybe it was the alcohol, but he's just barely tipsy.

Next thing he knew, he kissed you. He realized that he loved you more than a best friend normally did. He was in love.

Even if it took your whole lives, you thanked whoever the fuck made him realize he loved you (me).

In the middle of your kissing session, he pulls away only to take off his glasses, even touching the lenses despite wanting to keep it fingerprint-free.

His daughter's asleep, baby sitter's gone. You two stumbled into his house, lips locked. Jonathan wasted no time getting you into his bedroom (well, him and Mira's bedroom) and taking your clothes off.

Not only was this the perfect revenge, this was a perfect moment. Your wildest dreams finally coming true.

Jonathan fucks— no, he makes love. He's slow, making you feel good. He's definitely a giver. He peppers you non-stop with kisses. You leave scratches and marks on his body. The pleasure is too much. You were happy that night.

The next morning, breakfast in bed and a kiss on your forehead. Clearly, he didn't regret anything from last night. Jonathan really realized he loved you and you loved him.

Let's just say that you practically lived in his house at this point. Mira comes home to find Jonathan fucking you on the kitchen counter.

"You slut-!"

"You can't say shit, you cheated on him you fucking cunt!"

You successfully landed a harsh slap across Mira's face before getting pulled away by Jonathan. He carries you back into his bedroom and he cups your face with a smile.

"Did it feel good?"

"Yeah. Been wanting to do that since she broke the mug I gave you if I'm being honest."

Jonathan kicked Mira out, and you two spent the night making love to each other. Jonathan was right— everything Mira hated about him, you loved. You were absolutely better than her.

Their divorced finalized, and Jonathan got full custody of Ava. You moved in and brought life to their dull house.

For your birthday, he bought you a piano... an expensive one at that. He loved hearing you play.

He's the type to pick you small flowers every day and you have an album filled with pressed flowers. Before you go to work, he would slip a sticky note in your bag and you would find it while working and can't help but smile.

You make his lunches. He's always liked your cooking. You were definitely levels up from pathetic dinner tupperware spaghetti.

You even pack Ava's lunch for school, making notes like

Have a good day, sweetie! I love you ❤️

For Jonathan, it's always confessions of love. Even if at this point you two should be married.

Love you for as long as the stars shine ❤️

He can't help but smile like a fool during lunch. Even brags about the food you make.

He was in the middle of a lesson when he realized he wanted to marry you. As soon as class ended, he sprinted to Tiffany & Co. and bought you a diamond ring that suited you.

He was just utterly in love with you. One day, playing your piano, you looked ethereal that he grabbed the ring and got down on one knee. He just loved you too much.

You two spent the rest of your days more and more in love than that day in the bar along with your children. He couldn't ask for anyone better. You were the one for him, no one else.

Genshin Character Interactions I'd Love to See

(AKA some headcanons)

Kazuha & Razor:

Seems like a random combo but hear me out:

They both have a connection to nature and especially smells

Imagine Razor meeting Kazuha for the first time

"Smell like... cool breeze,"

"Thank you, my friend, you carry the scent of rock warmed in afternoon sunlight"

Instant besties

Razor's eyes light up, and whenever he's with Kazuha he likes to point out smells even more then usual because he feels like they're bonding

Although Kazuha uses a lot of words and phrases that Razor doesn’t understand, the poet is very patient, and is always willing to teach his fellow nature affiliate something new

Razor feels like he's gained a new teacher, and observes the way Kazuha seems so connected to nature but is still very much human, which helps the wolf-boy explore that balance in himself

Kazuha admires the simplicity and honesty with which Razor carries himself, never needing more than what the world provides him

Also Kazuha always understands what Razor's trying to say or do no matter how few words he uses

Kaveh & Bennett

Bad luck babies

They find out their mutual bad luck when Kaveh off-handedly complains about his debt, and Bennett immediately goes to comfort him, saying how he’s sure it’ll get better eventually, and hey! Everyone has avalanches chase them sometimes, and the occasional lightning strike to the skull!

Kaveh sighs: “Thanks, but I don’t think any metaphor will equate to my problems,”

“What do you mean metaphors?”

…

“You were using metaphors, right? Right, Bennett?”

He was not

But I imagine that once they get talking about their luck and especially their attitudes towards it, they really find a lot of interest in each other

Kaveh would hugely admire how Bennett always bounces back, always smiling and never afraid to keep going and keep feeling despite all the terrible occurrences he goes through each day

Bennett finds such solidarity in knowing an adult who’s plagued with bad luck, who is still incredibly successful. Bennett admires how Kaveh is renowned and famed throughout Sumeru for his work, and is a kind soul in his daily life, even with the troubles he has. Even though Bennett doesn’t think he needs to be famous, it’s nice to have real proof that even if he’s unlucky, he could still lead a great life

Klee & Xiao

Xiao would obviously be a bit standoffish at first

Klee views him as another one of those weird adults that doesn’t smile or talk, but she still trusts him innately

I like to think Klee is genuinely a good judge of character, and even if she finds someone weird, she feels that it doesn’t mean they can’t be a great person

Klee once asks Xiao to hold Dodoco for her while she tries to catch a frog in some mud, since Albedo’s always telling her to be careful with things she cares a lot about

Xiao is slightly stunted by the request and the bright smile that comes with it, but nods dutifully and carefully takes the little plush in his hands

Klee runs off to play, and when she gets back she’s more than pleased to see that Xiao is holding Dodoco to his chest, cupping him carefully and keeping him upright

Some adults just don’t respect Dodoco like Xiao does (Klee has had the terrible experience of people tucking Dodoco under their arm like a book! Not a good holder; one star review)

Upon returning to reclaim her friend, Klee gives Xiao as big a hug as her tiny arms can muster, and though Xiao’s eyes widen and his shoulder stiffen, he lets the small girl embrace him

Klee appreciates the respect Xiao shows her, even though she's small and young

Xiao is careful of how his karmic debt might affect this innocent child but lets himself relax at how Klee unabashedly loves the world. It inspires him to try loving more openly

Venti & Kaveh

So what if I’ve already put Kaveh on this list this is my post I do what I want

Sadge alcoholics with ✨dramatic tendencies ✨

You know they have the best stories tho

When these two come together, every room they enter is a party or every room they enter is a crying support room filled with regrets

Either way the room is filled with wine

Their energy is contagious and they can lead crowds of people to begin partying on a random Tuesday afternoon

But when they're in their feels, they look at each other with the understanding and empathy that they each wish they could gain from others in their lives

When Venti's soft voice carries out a melancholy ballad, Kaveh is the first to start crying

When Kaveh begins drunk rambling about his life, Venti's the one to pat his back, smiling softly despite the deep and old emotion his eyes hold

They hold a mutual and quiet understanding of the simultaneous pain and wonderment that living can bring that I think would be really interesting to see play out

Jean & Kokomi

I feel like if they met initially it would be all business

Discussions on foreign trade, sharing experiences from issues that have arisen in the past

All very professional

That is until either of them slips just a tiny bit about how freaking tired they are, and the other perks up and starts trying to subtly find out more

“Hm, it is a great honour to serve the people of Watatsumi Island, although I wish I had the energy to do more in a day,”

*cue Jean realising she may have just found an overworked buddy*

“Yes, I feel the same about the Knights of Favonius, there is always more to accomplish, though Lisa is always telling me to take more time to myself, although I don’t know how I could.”

“Exactly!” *cough* “I mean, yes, I understand how worrisome that must be.”

They silently sip their tea simultaneously, carefully fixing their posture

And then suddenly begin ranting and confiding in each other about how much they always have on their plate

🎶You’re just like me, I’m just like you~

Overall very cute relationship, they start off distanced by duty, and then become besties once they realise their common ground

Imagine them each making sure the other isn’t working too hard!

And they always listen to each other even if they don’t listen to others who tell them to take breaks because they know the other understands completely just how much they have to do

The ladies with a un-bothered germaphobe s/o -- like if something dramatic where to happen the s/o is all like "um Chile... anyways-" but if someone touches them without clean hands or gloves they just loose their shit-

Mood. Also, rip lmao MMs is so much longer and I got a teensy bit off-topic

Hope you enjoy ❤

Tag List: @minitrescu @ultimatebottom69 @imsososolesbian @luni-draws-crap @fatherse7en

Included: Mother Miranda, Mia Winters, Donna Beneviento, Alcina Dimitrescu, Bela Dimitrescu, Cassandra Dimitrescu, Daniela Dimitrescu, Alex Wesker

Mother Miranda

There's a whole thing where you kinda just vibe over hating people being unclean about their lives or whatever

But anyways

You and Miranda get along pretty well once you get to a point where you two talk and not vaguely feel threatened by the priestess

So Miranda kinda just goes by believing that youre indifferent (bc I mean so far-) and it continues like that until one day

One terrible day

A very gross lycan decides that YOU are its best friend, idk why it doesn't want you dead don't ask me hard questions

And he follows you around like a puppy at first and youre like "ok weird" until it escalates to a hug

.

Uh oh

You lose your mind, Miranda assumes danger and kills it making it WORSE as now it's gotten all over you and bestie youre having a bad time

:(

Anyways Miranda is very confused ngl

Mia Winters

You shake hands and she immediately notes the gloves and the way you use a disinfectant like a weapon

Sprayed some mf in the face was lowkey funny

She respects it and doesn't push you, besides I'd like to think that after the fucking debacle of Lousiana and the RAW meat she had to eat

Mia is a little testy about germs too, so she's got you

If someone ever has the audacity to skin-to-skin contact you not only will you be almost crying, they WILL be crying thanks to your great gf the badass mold queen Mia

Overall she's got your back

Donna Beneviento

Takes the avoidance of touch personally at first which leads to a whole series of rom-com levels of misunderstandings

Once it's explained she gets it

Angie doesn't and has to be put on a leash but it's fine

:)

Donna is extra careful which is ridiculous bc she's barely around other people so she's forcing herself to giant her own damn house

Youre mostly like "girl I'm not allergic to the air you breath"

If someone sets you off they're dead no questions

Doesn't matter if it was an accident they upset you

🔪🔪🥄

Take the spoon as you will

Alcina Dimitrescu

Ngl she's not understanding at all when you first meet

Sure once youre like lovers n stuff she's like "back off use your hand sanitizer" (idk how germaphobes live sorry)

But before she's downright disrespectful

Same as Donna, someone touched you skin to skin:)))) what? No, she's fine, the claws just needed some air :))) shell be back in a min don't worry :)))

Bela Dimitrescu

Takes it at face value and sees it as something she could like

You don't like germs which makes you one of the cleaner maids around which makes you an asset to being fucking ridiculous about cleaning rooms

You'd have to supervise for it to get done but Bela likes the mildly irrational idea of it

That's...not quite how it works all the time but she's stronger faster and drinks more human blood than you

You don't tell her that

Eventually she just sort of buzzes around you and hisses at Dani to stay away bc homegirl cannot keep things together

Unsurprisingly Dani escapes Bela's sight and lunges for you in a non-murdery way and makes contact

Game. Over.

You scream bloody murder and go into a panic attack while Dani hisses at the loudness and doesn't understand a thing

Dani briefly has no hand at dinner and everyone sort of pretends like they don't see

Cassandra Dimitrescu

Just like her mother, fucking horrible about it on purpose before she grows fond of you

THEN she gets livid at the idea of someone messing with you

Accidentally sets you off mindlessly and freaks out when you freak out making it so much worse

I think it would take a lot of time to get her to not automatically do something to set you off so idk about your relationship life span

Daniela Dimitrescu

This my bestie is a commitment

You either last like a week or for life

Because she is uh VERY into skin to skin I am living in your organs kind of thing

Daniela doesn't MEAN to set you off. Kinda does it often because she can't help herself

If you commit anyways (very unhealthy of you bestie) then after time she's the most respectful fly woman you'll ever date

And the only but that's not the point

The point is she gets angry when others set you off and everyone kinda pretends like she isn't a serial offender

And we get personality growth as she learns some self control after trial and error

Alex Wesker

She recognizes it and shockingly assists you and respects it the quickest out of them all

Like genuine shock

I'd think it'd be a game of chance working with her though, so many new people coming in and NOT knowing you don't like to be touched

She appreciates your aloofness but takes it harshly when youre touched and pretty much takes that as an instakill

[woodchipp]

Thank you for spelling out your character development, Aubrey! You really needed to because you didn't actually have it in the first place, but the game needs to pretend as if you did!

"I felt like everyone abandoned me... and abandoned MARI too..."

I'd like to note the way Aubrey phrases this line. Mari is tacked on at the end of the sentence as if she's an afterthought.

Considering how self-centered Aubrey has shown herself to be over the course of the game, it reads more as "Everyone abandoned me, goddammit! oh and there's that dead girl too ig"

It's very subtle and intricate writing when your characters rant about their foibles to the audience as if they're standing in a confessional.

"After SUNNY stopped coming to school..."

Which he did on a whim, apparently. Nowhere in the game is it stated or implied he was homeschooled or granted some special exemption.

Also... the writer... totally... isn't... overusing... ellipses...

"I just wanted to go through the photos, because... well... I guess I just wanted to see everyone happy again."

It always circles back to Aubrey and what she wants. It didn't occur to her to leave Basil's things alone since going through the album might bring up some painful memories for him. No, all that mattered is that she wanted to "see everyone happy again," even if that makes those same people miserable now.

Aubrey is an asshole.

"All of our memories together..."

Because the giant "BASIL'S MEMORIES" on the album's cover wasn't convincing enough for her, apparently.

I have already touched on this in other posts, but for the purposes of this one, I have to reiterate.

1) Aubrey's immediate reaction to a perceived slight was to basically disown her close friend of God knows how many years (even though she had no reason to blame him, nor did she let him explain himself) and make a conscious choice to start harassing him. Because that's what strong friendship is, isn't it?

2) She conveniently doesn't specify other "things like that" she called Basil, which implies she might have called him something way worse than "creep"

As you should.

You won't get to do anything about that, though, because the story is going to shift its focus to Sunny in a few minutes anyway.

Peak writing!

And now she's turned on the waterworks because the game's running short on time allotted to her "character arc", so we need to pity her as fast as possible.

I find it funny how the fact Aubrey nearly killed Basil back at their old hangout spot the day prior is not directly brought up or addressed by her at any point of her rant. Her sudden breakdown would have made more sense if it came after her admitting how guilty she actually feels about the accident because she crossed a line or something like that. Nothing of the sort happens, and all we ever get is a vague "What I've been doing is worse than what BASIL did"

BULLYING PEOPLE IS NOT A "MISTAKE". IT IS A DELIBERATE DECISION YOU MAKE.

FUCK YOU.

(also, Sunny taking a few steps back instead of trying to comfort his friend like Hero and Kel speaks more of his character than the game ever could)

"I'm going to acknowledge I'm a shitty friend, but you're not going to see me develop! What do you take me for? An important character?"

"sorry I didn't put my life on hold to keep you all from turning on each other because I'm this group's singular braincell, apparently :<"

Yes, they don't deserve an asshole like you as a friend.

Sunny and Aubrey are both friends no one deserves, actually. One is so unreliable he walked out on his bestie when said bestie was at his most vulnerable and the other harassed her friend for four years just because she assumed he wronged her

Hero's argument to convince Aubrey she does care about her friends after all omits the fact she stole one of her friends' property and then bullied said friend because of it.

Love that no one gives a shit about Basil in this game.

And you couldn't say this while you were talking to her in the church on Three Days Left because...?

>>"We should all be here for each other!" >>Sunny is due to move town the next day

fucking lmao

And that's it! Aubrey's redemption is official!

Except it literally took a single poorly-written rant. And a hug.

Because that's peak writing.

143/10 once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece would absolutely kill my sister because I couldn't watch the TV for as long as I want again

Help I have another idea I need to share sjdnkek

This one's a bit wild ig so bear with me ok??! It's fluffy too and non toxic I think. I hope. Pls tell me this isn't somehow creepy I'm sorry if it is skskdkkd

SO- Aventurine × Ena! Reader.

Ena being ofc, the Gaiathra Triclops. In this version, even though everyone believes Ena was assimilated into Xipe, that's not what really happened - Ena instead made a deal with Xipe, trusting the Harmony to uphold Order, and willingly gave up their path and power as an Aeon, choosing to reincarnate as a mortal. And before they gave up their power, they did two last things: first, guarantee that their reincarnation would regain at least some knowledge of their previous life, i.e knowing that they were an Aeon before. And second, give out one last blessing to one of the people they watched over - Kakavasha.

Ena goes on to reincarnate (I'm thinking something like the Dan Heng/Dan Feng situation, so reader has dreams of their previous memories and such, but is a completely different person to who Ena was), and Reader!Ena lives a pretty tranquil life as a mortal - while Kakavasha goes through hell, and loses faith in the Gaiathra Triclops. I haven't given much thought to how they meet, but maybe Ena!Reader goes to Penacony out of curiosity for what a land presided by Harmony is like (given that they know they used to be the Aeon of Order, and that they had previously chosen to entrust Harmony with their path.) and they run into Aventurine there - and they just know. They can feel Ena's blessing on him, and they're immediately drawn to him.

Getting to know each other, creating a bond, trusting each other until Aventurine can open up about his past with them, and reader reveals their identity, and suddenly everything changes for him - he wasn't abandoned by his God, but rather they'd given him their final blessing before they passed - and reader has this strong urge to cherish and protect him, not because he's the child blessed by Ena, but because they've fallen for him. The complicated relationship they'll have to sort out where Kakavasha feels like Reader is a gift sent by Gaiathra, while Reader cherishes and worships him like he's the divine one. Aventurine being loved unconditionally and cherished for the first time, being basically worshiped by the Reader.. being treated like he's the most precious thing in the world, being looked at with pure love and adoration. The hurt, the confusion, the fear of being loved.. maybe reader can have some issues too and be so wholly devoted they'd do anything for him, no matter how much it might harm them, just to add a bit more trouble to work on.

I don't think I'll ever actually write any of my ideas (even though I do have a writing blog lmao) bc I'm too insecure about my writing and my inspiration bursts are too inconsistent, but thank you for reading my silly thoughts and letting me share them lol I really appreciate it, especially bc you're one of my favorite writers here <3

- Penacony DH smut anon (lol)

I DONT THINK ITS CREEPY AT ALL!! I adore reincarnation romances and I have a particular fondness for reincarnated deity romances. It would be so interesting to see Aventurine process this news. I really like the phrase you used wrt "the fear of being loved" - I think Aventurine would suffer very, very intensely from this fear under regular circumstances with a human. I can only imagine the state of panic he'd be in if he were the object of affection of the god who supposedly forsook him. augflgsjsk it would be so juicy... reader too I'm sure they're full of many complicated feelings just like dan heng is (I bet the two of them would be besties)

I'm sad hearing that you feel you won't write your ideas, I think they are so brilliant and I love reading them 🥺 you're always welcome to share them here - but please let me know if you do ever decide to post something, I'd love to read and reblog it <333

#yueshuo.asks #asks.penacony dh smut anon #<- ur thirst was so legendary btw i think about it every so often while im grinding in penacony LOLLL #hsr 1.2 spoilers #AS AN ASIDE I APPARENTLY HAVE ZERO LORE KNOWLEDGE BC I THOUGHT GAIATHRA TRICLOPS WASNT AN AEON? 😭 #what lore did i miss.....

Smallville 4x04

There's no way he didn't time that, my dude was deadass waiting at his locker until she walked past so he could annoy her😭😭

AND to show off his jacket, that's adorable🥹

hehehehehe

(Their progression is just so---, from this to "I would love to hear about it." POETIC CINEMA😭)

Clark showing his jacket to everyone stoppppp🥹🥹 Somebody tell him it looks good please

Lex I think you should find a less weird way to make amends, no offense👀 Yeaaahhhh I knew that would be Clark's reaction😬

Let the madness begin

"I finally understand why it never worked with Clark." ohgod "I wasn't devoted to him." OHGOD

Nothing was going to stop Lois from writing that article after they provoked her like that, she's coming for their asses

"Just got my headline." SEEEE (also Lois you're so cool date me pls)

I'm not ready for the next scene

Clark wants to unexist so bad right now😭

LMAOOOOOO Clark I'm so sorry💀💀

"The problem is, I'm not over Lana yet. Sometimes I think I never will be."

I know something that you don't😌😏

"Oh sweetheart. There's somebody out there for you. I know it."

QUEEN MARTHA & I KNOW SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T

I love that Clark is going to her for advice about this stuff😭😭

Lana got like 10 times more adorable this season wtf😭

Clark thinking she came to watch him practice, I hate to tell you this but she's dating your coach bestie💀💀

this is peak comedy actually I'm cackling PLEASEEEE

I'm really feeling Clark's pain this episode for some reason

Clark and Lois teaming up is the content I love and deserve😌😌

no because if she looked at me like that I'd be on one fucking knee immediately LOIS CHILL😭

I'm squealing omg look at themmmmm

I just love the way he says her name don't ask me why

plskasjsks they're comedians

she's so adorable I can't😭😭

Lois being super grossed out, same bestie, same💀

WHY ARE THEY SO FUNNY I'M SCREAMING

Clark I'm so sorry you have to go through this, I really am💀 The way he immediately runs to hide behind Chloe and Lois💀💀💀

"She was attacked by a crazy plumber." The way Clark just moves on from that statement LMAOOOO

"Oh, nice, Clark. You know you only have one thing to do." "Me? You're closer to the door." "Okay, so it's automatically my fault?"

full on married to each other years before they even start dating🤡🤡

His face journeys when she drags him are everything😌

"When you were in the loft, you told me to stay away from your girl. Who were you talking about?"

they know my weakness, they know it so well😭😭

I'm so glad Clark and Chloe are being upfront about how they feel

"But don't worry, I'll visit." "Is that a promise or a threat?" *short pause for eye sex* *shoulder punch to defuse the tension* "See you around, Smallville"

their episode endings are the best bc I'm just smiling like an idiot (trying not to think about the fact that she won't be there for the next 4 episodes or sth😭)

[tiny-katara]

I can totally buy that Zuko could fall in love with Katara. She’s amazing. But why would Katara fall in love with Zuko? She may have forgiven him and become friends with him, but it’s one thing to become friends with a former enemy and another love them. Zuko really hurt her in many ways. Please don’t think I’m trying to be rude, I’m just genuinely curious. I want to understand the way Zutara shippers think. I have to because the ship is so popular.

no you're totally fine anon! your question is perfectly respectful and i have no issue answering. in fact, it would be a pleasure :)

now i can only give you my perspective on why i believe katara could/would fall for zuko and a lot of it is heavily based on my own experience as i do relate to katara in more ways than i'd like to admit lol. anyways... let's begin (this will definitely be extrememly long).

zuko definitely did a lot to hurt katara, but she forgives him in the show and they are ride or die besties immediately afterwards. katara strikes me as someone who forgives wholly and completely upon seeing a genuine effort to be better and zuko showed that to her. i really don't think if she hadn't completely let the past go they would've been able to joke around like they do in ember island players, so i don't really see that in particular barring their potential relationship. might just be me tho lol.

the thing about katara is that she is very good at taking on others' burdens but very poor at asking for help with hers and i think this has a lot to do with the death of her mother.ccanonically, katara immediately fills the void her mother left behind. mothers generally take on the burdens of their children and expect nothing in return--as it should be! children are not responsible for dealing with an adult's problem. all this really goes to say that katara is a character that struggles to receive help because she's been channeling what she saw her mom do and it pretty much outright says in the runaway that katara is the motherly figure of the group and that responsibilty is heavy weight to bear, but one she does anyway. she takes care of everyone, but she really struggles to allow herself to share her inner turmoil with everyone as a result. like we do see her talk about how she lost her mother a fair amount with people, but very rarely do we see her discuss the specific impact it had on her with them. it's almost always used as her method of empathizing with people who have suffered as a result of the war, not as a means to gain closure.

katara does tell one character the full story of what happened to her mother and the character she chooses to share that with is zuko–which is absolutely crazy if i'm being honest! it says a lot that katara is able to speak her mind more freely to someone who has deeply hurt her than her friends/family--and not necessarily bad things. again, it just shows that katara feels like they need her to be the tough one, or the caregiver, but she never does that to zuko. he's one of the few characters katara can freely express herself to and that's not just me making assumptions, that's canonical. it's insane when you're watching through the show and looking for katara's most vulnerable and honest moments and noticing that a lot of them occur around zuko. it's pretty clear that katara feels some kind of connection with zuko from like the first moment they have an actual conversation. like our girl just pulled that spirit water we'd all forgotten about and deemed fixing zuko's esteem issues worthy of it.

if you step back and think about it though, zuko and katara are some of the most similar characters in the show. both of them are very passionate people who fight for what they think is right. both deeply understand the meaning of a sacrifice since their mothers both gave up their lives for theirs (ursa obviously isn't dead but from zuko's reaction in the show he clearly thinks she is and she did still sacrifice her current life/lifestyle). both are pretty emotional and reactive if they're pushed to it. both are deeply empathetic, which often drives their sense of justice. it makes sense that katara would feel more comfortable opening up to him because zuko just gets it.

now this isn't about kata/ag and i don't want this to turn into anything like that, but this is the reason a lot of us zutara folk don't like kata/ag. no offense to aang, but our boy is 12. he is not going to be good at emotions and deep-rooted trauma no matter how wise and knowledgeable he may be lol. He just doesn't notice this struggle of katara's, and this isn't exclusive to aang. none of the members of team avatar are ever truly able to see this in katara and actively try to help her. that is until zuko.

the southern raiders is an episode that is wildly controversial across the fandom. there is no denying that lol. my interpretation will no doubt be different from yours, especially since it seems like you ship kata/ang (? this is not meant offensively love whatever you what anon!). in this episode we katara finally snap. she isn't being kind and caring, she's being selfish and angry--which let's be real, she deserves. like i said, none of the members of the team ever really notice that she's bearing the brunt of the weight in the group and our girl is doing a lot. it's really just a culmination of her family separating again, the burden of playing mother, the long journey (you can't tell me she's not completely exhausted), and the hurt zuko caused. everything builds up and katara does say some things that she definitely should not have, but it's mostly because of how blunt and hurtful they are.

a bit of a side note, but katara's comment to sokka is something that has always bugged me. i hate that we didn't get a scene between the two in which they reconcile and actually talk about what she said, because basically what she said boils down to "even though we shared the same mom and experience, the trauma we went through as a result is not the same." that statement is 100% accurate. sokka is very clearly not carrying around the same baggage katara is. it's pretty clear that katara feels responsible on some level for her mother's death as she is the last waterbender and that's why the fire nation was there in the first place. it's obviously not her fault, but we don't always process these things in the most logical ways now do we?

anyway, katara is hurting very badly in this episode and we see her lash out at zuko specifically, which is completely understandable. he’s from the nation that killed her after all and then on top of that royalty lol. it's the perfect storm really. i think it's important to note that although katara doesn't exactly state what's wrong apart from mentioning the betrayal in ba sing se, zuko is able to see how much she's actually hurting and tries to fix it as best he can. we also see zuko defending katara's decisions throughout the episode. he has her back 100% and he never expresses any sense of disappointment in her. zuko trusts katara's judgment and choices, something we don't see aang or sokka do in that episode. a partner should be able to let you make your own choices and have your back. zuko's giving katara that chance and he isn't telling her what to do or expressing disappointment in her actions.

this is probably based more on my own preferences, but i really don't think it's unrealistic for a teenage girl to fall for someone who is older and cares for her. i mean the guy jumped in front of lightning for her??? like idk but it would definitely make my heart skip a beat especially if he's also someone you get along with quite well. the two are ride or die besties in the span of like an episode. AND katara actually is amused by him on some level as seen in ember island players when they have their little moments of banter. all of the boys katara shows interest in before the finale/that aren't aang are older too. jet is older and if you count haru he is too (it's up to you there, i personally don't really know how to feel about it). that's also without mentioning how strikingly similar zuko and jet look. it is absolutely wild how closely they resemble each other, so it really doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility to say that zuko would fit katara's aesthetic if you will lol.

something else that is fairly unique to zuko is that he always treats katara as his equal. katara and zuko are always battling on the same level and he never acts like she can't handle herself. in my opinion, zuko is the one who shows the most respect for katara's bending abilities. zuko asks her to come fight azula with him because of that. like he definitely acknowledges that toph is also insanely powerful, but katara is someone who worked hard for what she is, and that's something zuko had to do himself. he knows exactly how hard it is to work for what she has and i think that understanding of her innate talent and work ethic are both reasons she would zuko to be an appealing partner, especially since katara has always had to demand that respect from other people. zuko respects it without her saying a word and i think it's safe to say that pretty much everyone wants a partner who acknowledges their talents and abilities without being specifically asked. i think this also ties in with part of her affections for jet because he also showed interested and respect for her bending. i mean he also did abuse her bending but still! katara would not put up with someone who didn’t show her respect.

zuko is just a more appealing partner than anyone else to me. he grows up a lot and has a strong sense of responsibility, is empathetic, passionate and ambitious, kinda dorky and awkward, and all around trying to be the best person he can be. those are pretty attractive qualities in a partner, so it just makes sense to me for katara to feel similarly, especially since i very much identity with her character lol.

so that was absurdly long, but i hope that helped your understanding of zutara! it's a ship that very strongly values strong individuals that are similar and different and respect each other as equals. my explanation is a bit messy and all over the place, but i really hope you did find it insightful! if you want a better and more in-depth view of the ship, i would recommend this video by snzeey reviews (its a long one but it is extremely thorough). she's able to explain it very politely and with much less bias than me. she even talks about how aang in a very respectful way, which I will admit to failing at lol. book 3 aang drives me up the wall! 

anyways thanks for your ask :) i am so sorry it took me so long to answer but i have literally thought about it all the time since receiving it lol. it was a lot of fun <3

#sorry this took me a while to put out anon #i had a lot to say #and i loved writing this out #zutara #zutara meta #i guess lol #i don't really know

So fuck, marry kill with PCs you can replace fuck with kiss for Celeste

I wanna see how many of them would choose to kill Hun :)

-🦤

OHHHHH BOY! HERE WE GO! Also, I assure you no birds will be harmed in the making of this~ ... Good luck in the proceedings~

Everyone

"Alright!" Jas clapped her hands, hushing the buzzing from the group with a warm smile. "We'll all get our turn, so settle down. I say we go from the order we are usually introduced to keep things from getting confusing, okay? Okay! So, starting with me...

"Hmm, oh... Oh dear... Okay, I have my answer. Marry Kim sweetie, cause of course~ I love you, darling! I'd be honored to marry you!" Jas blew a kiss to Kim with a wink, "ahem~ ...Fuck Hunter dear, heya~ You stud. And... I deeply apologize, Danny baby. I came to really like you but I cannot bed you for the life of me. You're dead~"

"...You sound very happy for someone apologizing..." Celeste mumbled with a pout.

"Ohh, sweetie, I'm being playful! Don't get too hung up I said I'd kill him. It's a game, babes! Your bestie is safe from me!" Jas pat Celeste's head with a giggle, who just pouted harder. She gestured Hunter to go.

"Oh boy. Sorry, feather boy (Danny)! You're on my hit list too. No hard feelings!" Hunter gave a toothy grin and ignored the intense stare from Celeste. "I think you'd rather die than fuck or marry me anyways. So, I'm fucking Hun-ty," Hunter gave Hun a smirk and a silly wiggle of the eyebrows, "I know we would have a great time if a bed breaking and time consuming experience... And, well, mama bird..."

Hunter kneeled down dramatically and held out his hands like he was presenting an invisible ring.

"Will you make me the happiest wolf around? By marrying me, not consummating the marriage, and then we amicably separate after a week or so?" Hunter batted his eyelashes at her with a grin, then gave a mock puppy eyed stare. "I cannot, in good conscience, sleep with my mama figure or kill her. So help me out?"

Hunter chuckled, and as he straightened up, he jerked from how close Jas and Dee's hands were to his neck. "What the fuck...?"

"Good boy, you answered well~ I have no problem with you." Dee sang, petting his chest and walking off. Hunter blinked in bafflement before staring at Jas' too sweet smile.

"Ohhh, thambi~ I raised you properly! I was worried I would have to end you after all these years of taking care of you~" Jas pinched Hunter's cheek, ignoring his more high-pitched "what the fuck?", "I would hate to have you as competition, puppy... So don't do that~ Ever~"

Hunter is dazed and a little traumatized.

"...Thank you for letting me replace fu-"

"BABY, DON'T SWEAR!"

Celeste feathers puffed out in surprise, blinking a few times before nodding.

"...Uh, replace... that word? With kiss... I'm not as bold or brave as Danny... So... Thank you." She gave a polite bow, holding her hands together anxiously.

"...I'll marry Danny... Of course. He's... my favorite. I'm sorry, Hunter, Kim... And... And Danny is a very good marriage candidate and person in general... Who shouldn't be so easily killed off by so many people-" Celeste is frowning, oh, no, she's sulking. Her friend's honor is tarnished, and she's not happy. "...hmph... I... Ah, I suppose I'd kiss Kim and... Hunter, I apologize for hypothetically choosing to kill you..."

Celeste looked truly remorseful and bowed deeply towards the biggest bird.

"Aw, honey! It's a game! None of that." Jas mumbled to the girl, rubbing her back.

"Celeste! Don't feel so bad! They make a very good kill option!" Dee joked, backtracking immediately when Celeste looked more gloomy. "Ohhh, no, no, no. Come on, birdie. They choose to kill you too! It's all in good fun! It's a game, m'kay? No one is dying. Chin up!"

Celeste still wrung her hands with a frown but looked less devastated.

"I... It's not personal, I promise. I truly am fond of you... I love this whole family... I would never ever kill you. I swear."

One more bow, and that's the end of Celeste's turn.

"Eep." Maeve hunched into himself when everyone looked to him, he blushed pink and looked right to his feet.

...

...

...

...

"Princess, you got to answer." Hunter mock whispered with a friendly wink. His warm expression still set off a bunch of panic whimpers from the cow.

"I, I, I, I-" Maeve stuttered fiercely, he didn't want to answer, he's scared, he didn't want to say the wrong thing, they're going to hate him-

Maeve pulled on his pigtails hard. Trying to block his thoughts with pain. Just... Just speak fast, and they'll move on. Yeah. Just... Just speak really fast.

"IwanttofuckHunterIhonestlythinktheyareveryattractiveandImsorrybutnotsorryIwanttomarryDannyhetreatsmeverywellandandandIknownothingwouldeverhappenbutmybrainstillfantasizebutthatleavesmetokillKimandImsosorrypleasedonthurtme."

...

"Maeve, you're an adorable cow, and I love you." Dee started slowly, "but I didn't understand a single thing you said."

Celeste tilted her head, "oh, Maeve would sleep with Hunter. She thinks Hunter is attractive. She would marry Danny cause he treats her well. That leaves her to kill Kim. Maeve does apologize about that and wishes to not be harmed."

Maeve made a distressed moo, which Dee shoved her tail into his hands to hug. It did seem to calm him down, but he was also half attempting to suffocate himself with the fur.

"I'm impressed you heard all that. Guess we are moving on! Last but not least~ My turn~"

Dee looked directly at Kim with a bashful smile.

"Dear sweet Kim~ Would you take me as your fluffy wifey? Pros of marrying me includes full time rights to pet my tail, which is luxurious, soft, and extremely therapeutic to play with. We can do makeup for each other, and I assure you, I'll bring you out the house looking drop-dead gorgeous~ Not that you need much help! I'm very very pretty, as you can see, and I will be your lovely arm candy wherever you go. I'll break the teeth of anyone who looks at you wrong-"

"Get on with it." Jas huffed, Dee glared at the much taller cat and crossed her arms.

"So yes, I would marry Kim. And then... Ah."

Dee looked at Danny, then at Hunter, then back to Danny. Her ears dropped against her head. "Uh oh."

Maeve yelped and let go of the tail that puffed out suddenly. Dee's tail immediately wrapped around herself as she hummed and hawed.

"I... Well, I mean... Maybe... No. Um." Dee turned red and shook her head multiple times at her own thoughts. She covered her face and muffled out her answer.

"Uh, what?"

"fffmnphaahraaunkaalhudah!"

Hunter crouched down besides the flustered fox, whispering in her ear and waited patiently. After a second, she whispered back into his ear.

"SHE'D FUCK HUNTER AND KILL DANNY!"

"Not so loud!" Dee cried out in a strangled tone. Choking at her own breath when she made eye contact with the birds and yanking Hunter to hide behind. "GAME OVER! BYE BYE! I SAID NOTHING!"

Twice's 10th member is babysat by Fromis_9

A/N: I got an ask on Tumblr from one of my besties on Tumblr and I loved writing it, ty bae! :D

The request: yo lady I got a request and you prob know who its from even if its a anon lol anyways back when y/n was a minor, but like younger like 14 idk the members wanted to go out drinking but the didn't want y/n to be alone all night so they left Y/n with Jiwon Jisun and Jiheon from fromis_9 and at first y/n didn't wanna go because she didn't know them well but after seeing that Jisun was comforting and motherly like Jihyo Jiheon was calm and funny like Tzuyu and Jiwon was playful and loud like Dahyun and Nayeon y/n begged to stay longer then just one night..(Jihyo said no) (A/N: Yes, I do know it's you boo lmao ily)

PS: Tysm for everyone that reads what I write, I hope I can bring a smile to your faces every time I post! I'd like to thank whoever sent me this idea 'cause I loved to write it <3

__________________________________________________________

It was a Friday evening, and the members of TWICE were excitedly discussing their plans for the night. They had been working hard, promoting their latest comeback, and they were looking forward to some well-deserved relaxation. However, the thought of leaving Y/N alone for the entire night didn't sit well with them. The girl was the youngest member of TWICE, still just 14 years old, and they wanted to ensure her safety and make sure she had a good time too. With that, Jihyo, as the leader and mother number 1 (lmao), came up with a brilliant idea. She knew the members of fromis_9 and believed they would be the perfect company for their kid. She called up Jiwon, Jisun, and Jiheon and explained the situation. The fromis_9 members were more than happy to help out, seeing it as a chance to bond with TWICE and take care of their cute maknae.

When TWICE informed Y/N about their plan, she felt a mix of anxiety and curiosity. She didn't know the fromis_9 girls well and wasn't sure if she would be comfortable spending the night with them. She expressed her concerns to her Omma Jihyo, who reassured her that the fromis_9 members that were coming (and the ones that weren't too but that's not the case lol) were kind-hearted and would take good care of her. As the night approached, the maknae found herself at the dorm where fromis_9 stayed, it was nice and cosy. She was greeted by Jiwon, Jisun, and Jiheon, who welcomed her warmly. Jisun, with her gentle smile and caring demeanour, reminded Y/N of Jihyo in some way, maybe the motherly vibe (Jisun is the mom in Fromis_9 so it makes total sense and I love it sm). Jisun sensed TWICE's sunshine's nervousness and immediately went out of her way to make her feel at home.

Jisun - Hey, cutie! Don't worry, we're here to make sure you have a great night. Let's start by ordering some of your favourite food and getting comfortable.

Jisun sat the younger girl down and asked her about her hobbies, interests, and dreams. They discovered their shared love for singing and dancing, and Jisun encouraged Y/N to pursue her passions wholeheartedly.

Jisun - You're so talented, kiddo! Don't be afraid to shine and follow your dreams. We'll always support you. 

TWICE's angel couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort and security in Jisun's presence. It was as if she had found an older sister in her, someone she could confide in and look up to. Meanwhile, Jiheon displayed a calm and collected personality that reminded the maknae of her Tzuyu unnie. She was quiet but had a mischievous spark in her eyes. Jiheon had a unique way of making Y/N laugh, her witty comments always made her giggle. As Jiheon began to speak she pulled out her phone.

Jiheon - Hey, sis, let me show you something cool.  

She started playing a funny video, and soon both of them were laughing uncontrollably. Jiheon's fun-loving nature instantly drew Y/N closer to her, as she began to see her as a cool and funny older sister figure. They shared stories, jokes, and silly dance moves, creating a bond that would last beyond that one night. Lastly, there was Jiwon, who had a playful and loud personality that reminded Y/N of Dahyun and Nayeon. Jiwon's energy was infectious, and she had an incredible talent for making any situation fun and exciting. pulling out a colourful game from the shelf Jiwon spoke excitedly.

Jiwon - Honey, let's play a game! I have this board game that I've been dying to try. It's going to be so much fun!

Jiwon initiated various games and challenges throughout the night, ensuring that the youngest was fully entertained. They laughed, cheered, and celebrated each other's victories, creating a lively and upbeat atmosphere. As the night progressed, Y/N started to feel more at ease in the company of Jiwon, Jisun, and Jiheon. They listened to her stories, shared their own experiences, and created memories together. She soon realized that she didn't want this night to end, so she begged Jihyo to let her stay longer, hoping to spend more time with her newfound friends.

Y/N - Please, Jihyo unnie! They're so much fun, and I feel so comfortable around them. *puppy eyes*

Jihyo, being the responsible leader she was, gently declined her child's request. She explained that it was important for Y/N to have a consistent routine and a stable environment. Jihyo promised that there would be more opportunities in the future for the maknae to spend time with Jiwon, Jisun, and Jiheon. Though disappointed, Y/N understood Jihyo's reasoning. She bid her farewell to her fromis_9 sisters, thanking them for their kindness and promising to meet again soon. As Y/N left the dorm, she carried with her a heart full of gratitude and cherished memories from that one unforgettable night. Little did she know that in the years to come, she would cross paths with Jiwon, Jisun, and Jiheon once again. They would all become even closer friends, sharing laughter, tears, and dreams together. But for now, the girl returned home, feeling a sense of growth and gratitude for the precious bond she had formed with the members of fromis_9. And as she remembered everything when she laid in bed, she could only have one thought:

I am proud of our dear family.

A/N: I apologise for any errors, English is not my first language. Pls, let me know if there's something wrong, ty for reading <3

Dana...you are incredible! A queen! Chapter 14? You had me on my kness choking more than Yoongi's di-

Lol, that was weird 🧐 Anyway. On the piano? Ah, I remember when I sent and the ask about the spicy moments and one of my guesses was on the piano 😏 and to be honest? You nailed it better than Yoongi's di-

It just happened again! Feel like I'm possessed...by Yoongi's DI-

Alright, joking aside. It was an amazing chapter. Hannah telling us not to break Jin's heart for us to break it like a week later? I teared up not gonna lie. To all of their reactions, because the hurt was there. It didn't linger but it was there. Like Tae's approach to getting drunk is 100% my approach to stuff. And to be honest I'd love to see Y/N's approach when her jealousy is going out the roof. I have a feeling things will escalate a lot before we delicately fall into an OT8.

Yoongi is acting so cocky now. Like literally he's rubbing it in with everyone so badly. But I love it because it riles them up into acting.

I love how you wrote the sex scene. I for one tend to skip over, but I don't know how you did it, i read that scene (chapter) over 5 times today. It was so easy for my mind to imagine it. So congratulations! You are further proving that you are a talented writer.❤️ Alsoo the ears?! Excuse me!? I'd go around teasing all of them, cuz I'm a bitch😊

The end? I love it! The cliffhanger? I love it! Are you stil an evil motherfucker for ending it like that? Yes, yes you are💀

I have lots more to ask you but that has to be for another day. Sending you lots of love and a big hug....big like Yoongi's di-

🤣❤️

AHHH BESTIE!!! THANK YOU I LOVE YOU 🥺😭💕 fdkaslfjds But also HA stop it right now 🧎🏻‍♀️

ON THE PIANOOOO Had to do it!!! Definitely a fantasy of mine esp w Yoongi but!! I swear that scene came to me in a vision like I could just see Yoongi on his knees and ...... YEAH AAH I'm so impressed you guessed and even more excited that you liked it 🥵

Noooo not breaking sweet Jinnie's heart 😭😭😭 But you're right he's probably feeling really bummed out... He's definitely got feelings for her, you can tell they're starting to get stronger especially in 14. I'm the same, too, when I get upset I like to get drunk as well, too 💀 (yay to unhealthy coping LOL) I think it just proves how upset Tae was, because he's not much of a drinker. Definitely a lonnggggg road until they're all together, too.. I'm going one by one babey, SLOW BURN!

Mmmmm but cocky Yoongi is so HOT he must be taking pages out of Jeongguk's book 😉 Yoongi is like "why should I hide now that you al know..."

EEEE stop I'm blushing 😭 I'm happy that I could write a sex scene that you enjoyed, I read it over 5 times too to make sure it flowed... ah Yoongi is so sexy. Praise kink king for sure 🥵 But THANK YOU for the kind words about that scene 💜 MMM the ears I agree if I were Y/N I'd be tugging on their ears whenever they'd tease me, just to see how THEY like it!

heheheh evil motherfucker YES I AM! I just can't leave it neatly tied up in the end, I always gotta surprise you guys hehe. Needed a Tae moment, and I'm not a huge fan of ending oneshots or whatever immediately after a sex scene, but that's just me!

Sending you lots of love and hugs and kisses right back! Love hearing your thoughts on the chapters (and hearing from you in general!) 💕💜💕💜

Christmas Fic 2022: LadyWren7's Once Upon A Christmas

By LadyWren7

DO NOT COPY/REPOST

WARNING: Mention of an adult situation

Rating: Teen and Up

Summary/Notes: It's Christmas Eve and Hera and Kanan want to get the other something special, but they will soon find that it'll cost them something more valuable than money. This is a fic about love, hardship, and sacrifice that I hope will bring you and your family a little closer this holiday and appreciate the true meaning of Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! This is my Christmas fic for 2022 and I could not be more excited to share it with you all!! It's technically based off of The Gift of The Magi but it's specifically an au of the Mickey/Minnie short in Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas because of the events that take place. Enjoy and happy holidays!Thank you to my bestie @chaoticdumbassrogue for helping me with this, I really appreciate it! Those who have seen the Minnie and Mickey short in Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas, you're in for a treat.😉

AO3

Hera awoke on Christmas Eve to the sound of someone in her kitchen. She immediately grabbed her lucky watch pendant and squeezed it.

After quietly getting out of bed she grabbed her bat and she and her cat chopper crept around the corner. Chopper was about to pounce when Kanan came into view, Hera put her bat down as she sighed in relief.

Chopper still tried to pounce anyway, thankfully Hera managed to grab his collar and stop him. "Chopper!"

"Oh, hey." Kanan turned with an innocent smile, flipping a pancake as he did.

"Sorry if I scared you, I was in the area and thought you might want some breakfast?"

In the area? Dear, we live in the same county. She thought. Her Kanan was never good at making up excuses to see her, but it was honestly cute. She decided not to counter him on it though, it was too early to keep up with banter and she had to admit, she really didn't feel like failing at cooking today.

She gave a small, tired nod and let Chopper go, to which he walked away in disappointment. "It's fine dear, just please tell me next time. You scared me half to death."

She took a seat at the table as he continued preparing breakfast and decided to go through her mail. It wasn't long before she reached the rent bill.

Kriff.

"Syrup?"

Hera quickly flipped the bill face down. "Yes. Thank you."

He placed the plate of pacakes in front of her and she began to dig in. "Honesty," she said as she cut a piece off. "I dont know why I was so surprised. You do this pretty often."

Kanan shrugged as he served himself. "It's better to be safe than sorry, that's why I keep telling you to take my saber-"

"Kanan." She interrupted. For years now he insisted the weapon was hers and wanted her too keep it. Yes the sentiment was sweet but it was his, plus she was fine with her bat, the blaster she kept under her pillow, and of course her faithful cat Chopper.

"You know how many times I'd burn myself with that thing? Better yet, chop off a limb or something?" She reasoned.

He took the seat across from her and took her hand in his. "That's what practice is for."

"No love, the saber is yours." She shook her head softly and her gaze diverted to the flipped rent bill under her plate.

"You know, a weapon that special deserves a nice case." She commented. Yesterday she thought she'd be saying that as a clever nudge to what she was getting him, but now it seemed like a general statement.

I'll have to get that bonus now. She thought to herself.

Hera had been wanting to get a case made for Kanan's lightsaber for months, so when her boss said he was giving away a Christmas bonus she immediately jumped on the opportunity. Now she held hope that he'd notice her hard work and give it to her.

A small smile formed on Kanan's face. "Yeah, someday."

"Speaking of." He said with a lighter tone with a hint of mischief. "What time is it?"

A small part of Hera suspected he didn't actually want the time, but she decided to grab the pendant anyway. "Let's see, it's-"

"Stars, it's such a pretty watch," he sighed.

He apologized once he realized he interrupted. "Sorry, it's just- may I?"

Hera handed it to him with small laugh.

After taking it he made his way behind her and held the gold pendant just above her chest. She quietly gasped and her cheeks immediately began getting hot.

"Wouldn't it look nice on a chain around your pretty neck?" He said into her ear.

"Kanan..." She never thought a man could get her this bashful, but there she was, blushing like a happy lothkitten in spite of herself.

She had to admit, she liked it.

Of course her sly jedi saw this and leaned closer with a low, up to no good laugh.

He was inches from her neck now. "Well?"

Just then Chopper strolled in unnoticed and looked at the clock. Noticing the sticks were at the place his mom usually left at, he gazed over to find her partner way too close and immediately pounced.

Hera slowly tilted her head the other way. "I- Kriff! Chopper!"

Kanan was suddenly attacked and Hera had to pry him off before looking at the clock herself. "Karablast I'm gonna be late for work!"

She turned back to him. "Are you-"

"I'm okay, I'll drive you!"

"Okay." She rushed to her room with Chopper and Kanan to his speeder to get it started. Not long after Hera ran out with her coat and makeup bag.

"Go. Just try to stay off bumpy roads please." She shut the door and fumbled with her seat belt.

He nodded. "You got it."

He managed to keep the ride smooth and helped her finish up in the parking lot before kissing her goodbye and dropping her off.

"See you tonight, love you."

"Love you too."

---

On his way to drop off Hera's bag, Kanan passed by the jewelry shop with the gold chain he had secretly been talking about earlier.

He didn't have all the money now, his boss didn't pay him much, but just imagining Hera wearing it gave him all the determination he needed to get good tips and be able to pick it up by five when they closed.

He could already hear his boss shouting over the foot traffic when he pulled into the parking lot of his work.

"Welcome to Industrial Trees! Get your trees now, only one more day 'til Chri-"

"Merry Christmas sir." Kanan said in an attempt to maintain optimism.

Vidian crossed his arms with a scoff. "I'll be merry once I sold all these tress! Now get to work, your time is my money." He mumbled.

Kanan pretend not to hear that last comment and headed into the lot. Though he had his work cut out for him, he knew the result would be worth it for Hera.

For hours he nailed tree stumps to wooden planks, lugged trees into an organized set up, replaced the displays, swept up leaves, and helped customers as they came in.

He had just finished fastening a tree onto a Sullustan woman's speeder when she began digging through her purse. "Such a nice young man. Let me get a little something for you."

Kanan shook his head kindly. "Oh it's alright I don't expect anything, I'm just glad to he-"

She suddenly dropped a pile of credits in his palms.

He looked down at it with disbelief. Was that a fifty he saw? And another one?

"Have a merry Christmas." She smiled before taking off.

Kanan quickly went through the pile and smiled back. "Thank you ma'am. Merry Christmas!"

He held the money tight in his palm. "Thank you." He whispered to the force before returning into the lot.

On his way to tell his boss he finished with the customer he couldn't help but overhear his current conversation.

"Looking for a tree? This your lucky day. I got ten feet of towering Nova Scotia pine." Vidian declared.

"Well... it's a little more than we need." A male customer, replied with an uneasy tone.

This wasn't good.

Vidian sighed. "I'm gonna be honest with you sir, this is all I've got left on the lot. The others have been reserved. You don't want these kids going without a tree, do you?"

Kanan couldn't believe his boss was scamming people like this on Christmas Eve, he was wrong when he thought everyone had some empathy. With his mind made up, he headed to the back of the lot and picked a small, yet nice, tree and brought it.

The customer was about to sign a contract for a heavy down payment when Kanan emerged. "Sorry to interrupt, but how about this tree? I found it out back, it hasn't been reserved or anything."

"Wow!" The kids cheered.

"It's perfect, we'll take it." The mother said, Vidian glared.

As soon as the family drove out of eyesight Vidian grabbed Kanan's shoulder and turned him around to face him.

"What was that!" He shouted. "I had them on the hook for a ten-foot tree! You know how much money I would've made if I sold it?!"

Kanan huffed. "A bunch of money they didn't have!"

"What about me, your boss, huh? How do you know I don't got it worse than they do?" Vidian crossed his arms.

Kanan was more than angry at this point. It was asinine that he had to defend basic morals to a grown man. "Because you ruthlessly drag every penny out of others to build your fortune and refuse to pay your employees even half!"

A dirty scowl formed on his boss's face before he threw his hands up. "That's it! I'm tired of you constant attitude and selfishness, get out of my lot, you're fired!"

"Fine!" Kanan retorted. "No skin off my back."

He was about to take off when Vidian put a hand out. "I'm taking what I would have made if it weren't for you, hand over your tips."

Kanan almost laughed. "Like kriff you will! I worked too hard for this and it's rightfully mine."

"You really want to get tangled up with the cops of Christmas eve? What would your little girlfriend, Hera think?" He threatened.

Kanan didn't think he'd ever looked at someone with a more threatening glare. "You get my partner's name out of your mouth." He demanded in a low voice.

"And you get that money into my hand."

"No."

Vidian pulled out his phone.

Kanan was done at this point, the amount of time he wasted and work he did for this man, only for him to treat him like this? It wasn't worth it, none of this was.

"You know what, fine!" He threw his pouch of credits into Vidian's hand. "Take the money for all I care, but as soon as I leave this dump I'm reporting you and telling everyone how cruel you are!" He shouted before treading to his speeder and leaving.

Once he was far from the tree lot he parked at a random store and let himself think. He took out the little money he managed to keep from Vidian and sighed.

"What am I going to do now?"

•••

Hera was wrapping presents a mile a minute. She'd been working for months to get the Christmas bonus, and now that her money was taken up by bills, she was working harder than ever today.

"Well who made you Santa's number one helper?" Her younger coworker Sabine asked with a teasing smirk. Though she was only sixteen, the girl had the wit of a grown woman. She constantly stood up to the not-so-great boss and when he made her life difficult as a result Hera was always there to help. There was a time when the girl was untrustful and silent, but now she was becoming more lively and playful by the day.

Hera huffed a stressed laugh as she grabbed a bow. "My bills stacked up this morning and I still have to get Kanan his present. This bonus is all I got."

"Hey." Hera's other work friend Omega, a kind soul who Hera had known since childhood, placed a supportive hand on her shoulder.

Hera slouched in her seat and began untangling the bow. "I'm sure he'll give it to you." She assured. "You've been working hard all season, and with or without a gift, I know you and Kanan will have a great Christmas."

"Thank you Ome," Hera placed her hand above hers and managed a small smile.

Suddenly the room phone rang.

Sabine went and picked it up. "Hello? ...Ok, she's on her way." She turned back to the girls with a grin. "Mr. Tarkin wants to see you Hera."

The Twi'lek gasped and threw her apron off before heading to the door. Omega beamed. "What did I tell you?"

Hera now fully smiled as the girls ushered her out with encouraging words. When she got to the boss's office she made sure to conceal her excitement and took a deep breath before walking in.

When she opened the door she was immediately met with one of the younger workers making his way out. "Oh, sorry." He awkwardly apologized before going around her.

As he left she couldn't help but think why is outfit was disheveled. She and the girls had always wondered why he was always in there, they didn't even know his name.

"Tera." The older man began, snapping Hera out of her thoughts.

"Hera, sir."

An annoyed expression flashed across her boss's face for a moment. "Sure."

He clasped his hands together. "As you probably know I called you in to inform you on information regarding the Christmas bonus."

"Yes?" Hera was almost trembling at this point, her mind was spinning with anticipation and a hint nervousness. It'll be fine, she replayed in her head.

"Well, Cara."

She tried not to let annoyance add into it. "Hera."

Tarkin gave her a glare this time. "Don't interrupt. I called you to inform you that you will not be receiving the bonus."

Hera's eyes went wide in shock. "What?"

"I've found that employee number 421 is more deserving." He said with too much of a satisfied tone for her taste.

Hera knew full well she wasn't being unreasonable when she felt some anger rising amongst the confusion. She had worked too many long shifts, been in too many stressful situations, and dealt with too much of his bad treatment to not get this. So what the heck did he mean the man she just saw, who looked in no way presentable for work she might add, was "more deserving"?

She decided not to immediately get the claws out, maybe this could be negotiated. "With all due respect sir, what makes you believe he's more qualified? To be honest, in all my time here I haven't seen him anywhere but your-" She paused as a cruel realization came to her.

The constant "visits," the messy clothes...oh that was a disgusting thought.

"Miss. Syndulla," Tarkin's voice became more stern as he continued. She could tell he was starting to panic. "The reasoning of my decision is none of your business, you know all you need to know."

Hera's expression changed from shocked to disgusted in a matter of seconds. "Oh I know enough alright, like the fact you're having unprofessional affairs with an employee and favoring them over everyone else!"

Hera let her fustration flow freely now. Looking back it was foolish she had hope in him. Of course he was favoring a secret side piece, of course.

Her boss suddenly stood, slamming his palms on his desk as he did. "I will not be accused of corruption in my own office, go back to where you belong."

"No actually, I'm going home." Hera retorted before her mind could catch up. "If I'm going to work under bad conditions only to be screwed over, then I quit."

"Fine." Tarkin settled as if she meant nothing to him. Thinking about it, Hera knew she didn't, but once she left he'd realize.

"Get out."

Hera hated that she technically followed his order when she left but now she didn't care. All she wanted to do now was tell the girls and get out of the force forsaken building.

She broke down when Omega and Sabine asked how it went.

"Now how am I going to get Kanan's present?" She sobbed as they sat on the curb, the girls at her sides.

"Let's get you home," Omega suggested.

Sabine nodded. "I'm sure we can figure everything out there."

•••

Kanan now sat on a bench near the park, worried and discouraged. "There must be a way to get Hera's present by five." He sighed to himself.

He began mindlessly fidgeting with his saber, even making it float for a bit, as he thought of a solution.

After a few minutes passed he felt a light tap on his shoulder. He turned around to see a ginger woman in a white dress.

"I apologize for bothering you, but I couldn't help but notice you levitating that hilt. Are you force sensitive?" Her voice was kind and relaxed.

Kanan nodded. "Yes, I am."

The woman then clasped her hands together, Kanan sensed some anxiousness within.

"My name is Mon Mothma. You see, some colleagues and I are holding a toy drive in the park but our band is stuck in traffic, which leaves us in need of entertainment. I wanted to ask if you could use your abilities to draw a crowd?"

Kanan gazed past her to the town clock and saw it was nearing five. He was about to kindly reject her offer when she spoke again.

"Please, we're desperate. It's for a good cause."

Thirty five minutes, he could squeeze this in, right?

"I'll do it." He told her. She smiled in appreciation and lead him to the park.

When they arrived what he noticed were volunteer workers sighed in relief and Kanan was put on stage with nothing but his saber and a mic.

"Um..." He nervously looked around the mostly empty park, trying to think of ideas. He was almost about to call it when a little red ithorian boy placed a tooka doll on the stage and pushed it towards him.

His mother grinned and was about to take his hand to leave when Kanan used the force to gently levitate him on stage.

The child giggled and Kanan continued to show him force tricks. The event took off from there.

As more people gathered around he made people and objects float, guessed names, showed off his saber spinning, played mind games with the crowd, and blocked snowballs with his saber.

By the time the band arrived, the dumpster they were using to collect donations was overflowed.

Kanan had been so busy he completely forgot about the time. When he remembered he looked to the town clock, there was only ten minutes until five. I guess I'm showing up to Hera's empty handed, he accepted with a sigh.

Mon came up to Kanan as soon as he stepped off stage. "Thank you." She smiled. "Because of you, this was our best toy drive to date. I must say you and that saber make a great team."

"Thank you." He tried not to sound down. "It's worth it's weight in Beskar alright."

Baskar... He gasped as a realization came to him. "Stars, that's it! I have to go."

"Goodbye!" She called as he raced past her.

Kanan rushed back to his speeder and practically sped to the jewelry shop. When he finally reached his destination the owner was seconds away from shutting down.

"Wait!" Kanan ran up to him and pulled out his saber.

"I'd like to trade this in for something."

The older man stepped back, caught off guard. "Whoa, okay. Let's see what I can do for you." He offered with a chuckle, opening the shop once more.

Kanan sighed in relief and looked down at his beloved lightsaber one last time.

•••

Christmas morning Hera and Kanan sat on the couch in front of her fireplace.

Chopper longingly purred from his place on the carpet. Hera grinned and handed him a toy candy cane. "Okay buddy, here's your present." The cat immediately mowed happily and began playing with it.

Hera lovingly shook her head as she watched Chopper. "I love Christmas," she said.

She turned to Kanan and grinned. "Hey dear, where's your lightsaber? The fire's looking a little low, I was wondering if you could cut up some more wood?"

Kanan nervously shifted in his seat. "Um, Isn't it time we open our presents? Oh, speaking of time," he offered her present to her. "What time is it?"

Hera looked away for a moment before taking out his present. "Well I think it's time for you to open your gift."

They traded boxes and moved closer before opening their presents. Their expressions faded.

"A case for my saber..."

Hera held her gift up in front of her. "A chain for my watch..."

Her eyes met the floor as she sighed. It was everything she ever wanted, but she wasn't going to lie to him. She had to come forward. "Kanan it's gorgeous... but I traded my watch to get you that case." She sadly admitted.

"And I traded my saber to get a chain for your watch." He confessed.

"You gave up your lightsaber for me?" Hera asked softly. "Oh love you didn't have to, I know how much it meant to you. I'm sorry."

He took her hands and looked her in the eyes. "No. The saber meant nothing to me compared to you, plus, it was always yours. I just turned it into something you can keep now."

She gave a small smile and pulled him in for a hug well deserved by both. When they separated Hera looked up to see a small mistletoe hanging above.

Kanan let out a mischievous laugh when he noticed it.

"Sabine must have-"

She was suddenly cut off by a kiss from Kanan. She immediately sunk into his touch and as the kiss carried on they realized something. That this was what Christmas was about. Not money, not gifts, but love, true love.

The End.♡

QUICK BESTIE got a good starter season of survivor? I’m thinking it might be my new evening show and I know you’re thee expert

But of course, friend! Glad to see you wanting to join in the fun! I love this show so much, and as your resident Survivor Expert (TM) I'll gladly help you start your journey on the right foot.

Here are some seasons I think would work really well for a first-time viewer:

China (Season 15) - My first season, everyone and their mother's first season, and for a reason! A fantastic old school-ish season with great characters, fun challenges, and all the beauty of a jawdropping location that we're kinda sorely missing from new school seasons. There are idols in play and an interesting twist, shocking moments, some iconic characters, and I can tell from experience that I was immediately hooked!

Tocantins (Season 18) - Another one from this era of Survivor, and another fun one to get you hooked on the show. This one introduces a lot of iconic characters, including one of the most legendary, crazy characters (your opinion of the season may vary depending on your opinion of them, but to me they're really fun lmao). Another perfect starter season.

David vs Goliath (Season 37) - If you want to jump right into a modern season to feel more in tune with the game as it exists now (and to watch season 46 live when it airs!), DvG is the place to go. You will get the feel of the new school era with a very enjoyable cast and fun gameplay (also, Mike White is here, of School of Rock and White Lotus fame? Yeah).

These are not, in my opinion, good first picks, but rather fantastic seasons that I think benefit from already knowing a bit more of the game:

Pearl Islands (Season 7) - Like, the crown jewel of old school Survivor. I wouldn't watch it first, I'd watch a couple more so I have a better understanding of the game and can fully appreciate it, but yeah, this one is soooo iconic. The premiere is fantastic, it's got a bunch of stand-out characters, the VILLAIN! It does have a twist that's widely regarded as bad, but it's also regarded as one of the best seasons ever. Save it for after you've watched a couple other seasons.

Palau (Season 10) - Probably one of my favorite seasons, but again, this should not be your first pick at all. This season is so unique, so unlike any other, and it's so amazing because of that. It's not as lighthearted as the rest (you'll know why eventually), but it makes for a fantastic story. I love Palau sooooo much arghhh.

Season 45 - Do you want to start directly with a new era season (41-45)? Why would you? No, for real, why would you? I guess you can watch 45 right before 46 airs so you can know the game in its current state, but def don't make it your very first season. Still, I had a great time with 45, but yeah, new era.

If you want to know what my journey looked like, I did China (15) --> Tocantins (18) --> Pearl Islands (7) --> then decided I was in it for the long haul and just went back to Borneo (1) and started watching chronologically (a fantastic way to watch, imo, since you get to see the game evolve).

I will leave you with the link to the reddit WSSYW thread if you need to gather more info (their list seems pretty similar to mine!)

Hope you enjoy the show! Welcome to the tribe!

#survivor #juli answers #OH YOU'VE PRESSED THE SURVIVOR BUTTON #other seasons that would be fun would be panama kaoh rong millenials vs genx #obv dont jump right into returnee seasons! thats my final advice! #(no my final advice is to avoid s5 and s39 theyre...not worth it. also game changers for...that)
